Stem Sessions

Think of a flower in bloom, heavy and needing support from the stem,
now think of your body as the stem with your head perfectly balanced on top.

I have developed Stem Sessions with the aim of specifically looking at how to walk in
order to alleviate strain on knee and hip joints or lower back.

A Stem Session is in two parts, part one is an indoor session
where the Alexander Technique is explained, demonstrated and taught.

The second part is a practical session walking along the seafront with
touch and guidance from me and includes a stop for tea and discussion!

Of course you don't have to be in pain to experience a Stem Session!
Walking is done for enjoyment and is good exercise.
Creative thought often occurs when walking.

This is what author John le Carre has to say about walking:

"I have a walking appetite just as I have other appetites, and am quite frustrated
if it can't be answered on demand. Moving gets me unclogged in my head.
I almost never make a note when I'm walking and usually forget the great lines
I have composed, which s probably just as well.
But I come home knowing that life is possible and even, sometimes, beautiful".

There is a maximum of ten people on each course, so it is a chance to get
together with like-minded people. Not only
will you learn how to walk in a much lighter, freer way, you will have fun along the way.

SO COME ALONG AND JOIN IN!!

Stem Sessions take place in Hastings, Bexhill, Eastbourne and Tunbridge Wells and cost £20.00.
